_____________________________________________________
As any true artist, I am obsessed with photography. I am constantly thinking out of the box and trying to break the traditions of wedding and portrait photography to bring forth the raw emotions and feelings that make up life.

My goal is to create images, which record those human moments that
make the connection to life, love and family.

This enables me to constantly try new approaches in all aspects of
photography and deliver exquisite images and unparalled service to
each of my clients.

With an extensive background in Fine art and Fashion Photography,
Laurens style has a distinctive and classic, artistic and
photojournalistic look, which captures the true emotions and
personalities of our clients.

Lauren’s love for photography grew from a love of art and nature. It
was while photographing the beautiful island of Maui when Lauren
realized her passion and inspiration to become a professional
photographer.

After obtaining her Degree in Fine Art Photography and many years
of shooting along side one of Orange County’s finest wedding
photographers, Lauren was proud to announce the opening of her
new studio, on February 1st 2004.
